Homework Homophones

Homophone Focus
Each week you need to work through our list of homophones.
You should know many of them... take some time to look at the ones that you are less confident on.
By the end of the week you need to know the differences between them. You will be tested every Friday.
Minimum score is 8...average... 9...good... 10...awesome!
To begin with (according to your results:)) you choose how you best learn them.
Think about these words in your normal writing!!!
